Alicia Keys understands the importance of a vibe, so when the 15-time Grammy winner headlined a one-night-only concert at Harlem’s iconic Apollo Theater last week for SiriusXM and Pandora’s Small Stage Series, she was intent on setting a mood worthy of the venue. “The Apollo is everything,” Keys shared backstage. “It’s such a powerful, historic, monumental location for music and art. All the people who have ever touched the stage—Ella Fitzgerald, Billie Holiday, James Brown—it’s phenomenal.
As she prepped, Keys explained the necessity of divine feminine energy and how it informs her performances. “It’s this beautiful power that’s within all of us,” she said. “It’s part of the male experience, the female experience, the human experience—and it does play a part in how I dress.” The outfit Keys’s stylist, Jason Bolden, chose for the evening—a custom Greta Constantine jumpsuit that was half tuxedo, half ball gown—reflected those ideas beautifully. As she strutted through the Apollo’s orchestra section, trailed by backup dancers, her audience knew they were in for a thrill.
